Sometimes you just gotta get behind the mics and execute an audio download of the week and its affairs; so we did just that.

Join Randi & Frankie as they discuss a week of indulging in new restaurants and bars, getting a tattoo & covering a Grammy Awards event!

We also dig into a concept that has been on the minds of many; living a more "analog" lifestyle. Frankie & Randi discuss "touching grass," having a "dumb" phone & ditching screens to gain a deeper connection with loved ones & community.

We, of course, did some name dropping of great haunts in Los Angeles, and here's how to find them on socials.

Aly Rose's passion for the beauty industry was formed in her early years; just like many of us, the makeup of her family matriarchs was fodder for play; the difference with Aly was that by 7 years old, she had already mastered full beat makeup. She honed her skills, perfecting makeup looks for friends and family for events like dances, weddings and the like. She created a career path for her that led to becoming certified in theatrical makeup at Orange Coast College, and at the ripe old age of 16, she began a management career in beauty. Aly juggled her passion for beauty with higher education, studying Film, TV, and Public Relations at one of the most recognized universities, University of Southern California. During this time, she managed the Urban Decay counter, served as a lead makeup artist, and assisted with glamorous red carpet events. After earning her BA from USC, she was recruited by Victoria's Secret Beauty, where I had the pleasure of meeting and working with her, as she successfully managed a team of beauty specialists. Running into each other at a USC football tailgate and hearing about her plans of starting her own makeup artistry company was exciting and empowering; she truly was and is built for the beauty industry.

Aly has continued to empower women worldwide through her artistry. Along the way, she has conquered a battle with cancer, embarked on the journey of motherhood with two spirited boys, and embraced every day to the fullest. She is an inspiration, a mentor, and the future of makeup artistry.

In this episode, Randi talks to Battle and Randall of Blaec Elite DJs; but these two gentlemen are not just DJs. They are entrepreneurs who have built several businesses of their own, in addition to being mentors and developers for businesses around the world. They are insightful; operating on faith, trust and intention, with a healthy dose of radical kindness and positivity, they possess the desire to educate and leave everyone they connect with in a better space than before they met them.

En route to Benny Boy Brewing one day in June 2025, Frankie mentioned that there was a new DJ duo spinning that night, promising Classic R & B, Hip Hop, afro beats and more. We were ready for the vibes; but the vibes we arrived to? Immaculate. These guys brought style to the process; cozy stage, black leather couch, gnarled wood coffee table housing not only turntables and DJ equipment, but candles, incense, distinct spiritual sculptures. Essentially, a temple or shrine, if you will, to the music, the practice, the culture…and we were there for it.

In this episode, Randi talks to Cori and Lindsay-partners in love, life and entrepreneurship, merging their collective backgrounds, education and passion for the cocktail culture into a women-owned cooperative, aptly named JAI, aka Just Add Ice Cocktails.

Cori and Lindsay lean into the belief that business is built on community; working with local establishments, sourcing locally based ingredients and embracing the communities that adore their products as well as respect JAIs values and mission. Specializing in delicious, cold-pressed juice-based cocktails, made with the highest quality ingredients, Cori and Lindsay are creating a buzz in the alcohol industry, growing organically in the Los Angeles region, but with their eyes set on global domination, one sip at a time.

You can inquire about JAI Cocktails through their socials and website:

In this episode, Randi talks to the incredibly talented and undeniably delightful Lori Lamont. Lori exudes warmth and love not only through her persona, but also her gorgeous paintings. A self-taught artist, working out of her beautiful studio in Long Beach, California, and working exclusively in watercolor, Lori creates breathtaking pieces that don’t portray the usual fodder depicted in the medium.

Lori doesn’t do traditionalist.

She does big, bold, beautiful paintings that are a juxtaposition; through them she feeds us a meal of hearty, satisfying images of gorgeously meticulous flora & fauna, then satiates our need for a “sweet treat” by throwing in modern pop culture, fashion and big business references, creating a delicious dichotomy for our eyes and our minds.

Her work is available at www.lorilamont.com and on Instagram at @lorilamont1

In this episode, Randi talks to one of the most unique, talented and artistic "renaissance" men that she's had the pleasure of knowing-producer, curator, artist and archivist Johnny Young, also known by his moniker, Black Museumist.

Randi, Frank and Johnny talk all things art, music and fashion, and Johnny waxes poetic regarding his experiences taking non-traditional paths to success in these fields. We also express our thoughts on the beauty of an analog lifestyle and relevance of physical media, and Johnny explains how he maneuvers through all of his projects in his ever changing life.

You can find some of his work on his new website, www.museumist.art, as well as his Instagram, @blackmuseumist.
